Astro City finishes up its Winged Victory arc with both a super-villain beat down and WV confronting her backers with their views on how to empower women. I also like how she tells Karnazon he should stop trying to arch her, because he used to be a Big Thing kind of super-villain before he got obsessed with beating her...
Invincible has to team with Other Universe Robot and O.U. Mauler so that he can get back to his universe and stop Robot. Their plan involves cloning, thus Mauler. Invincible Universe continues with the upgraded threat of the Lizard League. The former bottom tier group ends up requiring the entire Guardians of the Globe to be called in, which still might not be enough...
Thomas and Nate head into Mexico to hook-up with an anti-alien cell in the Saviors. The motley group has plans for testing a new weapon on the aliens running the cops and the cartels in their area. Though Thomas is still pretty shy of joining any kind of resistance group...
Velvet travels to a covertly legendary masquerade in order to find a off-the-grid Russian former agent. Who will hopefully provide her with more information to help her find how to clear herself...
So of the eight new-ish New Warriors, we've got Sun Girl and unnamed horn guy in the sewers defending Morlocks; Robbie & Vance leaving New Salem to check the Avengers database on the new bad guys; Kaine, Hummingbird and the new Atlantean girl having their initial Meet Cute/Misunderstanding Fight; and the new Kid Nova still a prisoner of the High Evolutionary...
Lobster Johnson works to solve his latest mystery while dealing with a more hostile than usual NYPD. And Cindy, Lady Reporter attempts to dig into the past of the Lobster. Mostly finding awesome if kind of useless stories about pirates and mountain men and cougar shapeshifters...
Rucka's latest, Veil, is interesting. Though I'm hoping it moves away from being just a creepier version of Fatale's deadly but irresistible lady concept...
Finn, Jake and Marceline go about tracking down Princess Skyblade Harbinger in Adventure Time: the Flip Side as part of a plan to try and get Monkey Wizard back into the Princess Kidnapping game...
